Porcelain tiles can be used in any room in the house but using them in the bathroom is useful because they can be used if you wanted under floor heating.

Ceramic tiles are also typically very scratch and frost resistant. Ceramics are often used because of their impeccable durability, resistance to dampness and they are a lot easier to walk on when there wet because you get a slip-resistant surface. Also people often choose these tiles because they are easy to clean. An idea would be to use the same colour tile on the floor and wall because you could then use a different border to separate the colours. Laying the tiles in a different direction would create a better visual look to the bathroom.

As an example using a white tile could be infused with a dark red grout to emphasise the white tile because it would stand out and be different, which a lot of people look for when they design their own personal bathroom space. When choosing your tiles it would be a good idea to use bright and bold colours, and then use fixtures on the walls to mix in the modern side of the bathroom.
